What is python-amqp-doc

python-amqp-doc is:

This is a fork of amqplib which was originally written by Barry Pederson. It is maintained by the Celery project, and used by kombu as a pure Python alternative when librabbitmq is not available.

This library should be API compatible with librabbitmq. Differences from amqplib are:

  • Supports draining events from multiple channels (Connection.drain_events).
  • Support for timeouts.
  • Channels are restored after channel error, instead of having to close the connection.
  • Support for heartbeats.
  • Supports RabbitMQ extensions:
    • Consumer Cancel Notifications.
    • Publisher confirms.
    • Exchange-to-exchange bindings: exchange_bind / exchange_unbind.
  • Support for basic_return.
  • Uses AMQP 0-9-1 instead of 0-8.
  • Exposes the underlying socket as Connection.sock.
  • Adds Channel.no_ack_consumers to keep track of consumer tags that set the no_ack flag.
  • Slightly better at error recovery.
